Sniffy Assignment 4.1: Basics of Operant Conditioning; Schedules of Reinforcement
READINGS: Before beginning the assignment make sure you have read Chapters 1 & 2 of the Sniffy book. Make sure you have also read the appendix, “How to Manage Your Sniffy Files.” Some of these simulations can take some time to complete. You should also read Chapter 9 and the first half of Chapter 10 in Sniffy Pro.For this assignment you will shape Sniffy to bar press for a food reward according to difference schedules of reinforcement (Chapter 12: Exercise 32 & 33). HINT: You will start by opening the “ShapeBP” file, which is a saved session for a rat that has been shaped to bar press.First complete exercise 32. Allow Sniffy to train for 3 cumulative records. Print out Sniffy’s 3rd cumulative record before moving on to Exercise 33. After Sniffy is trained on VR5, you will increase Sniffy to VR10 and then ultimately to VR50 (this will need to be done in increments). After reaching VR50, allow Sniffy to train for 2 additional cumulative records. Print out the cumulative record for VR50. (IMPORTANT NOTE: the maximum amount of training that sniffy can do is 10 cumulative records—keep this in mind as you are incrementing!)After completing Exercises 22 and 23 in Sniffy Pro, you will turn in a written report. Your written report should address the following questions:1. Describe your experiment. What were the conditions of the experiment? What did you do?2. How were you able to reach VR50? What progression did you use? Did you run into any difficulty?3. How does the response rate (slope of cumulative record) change as the value of the VR-schedule increases?4. How would the behavior look different if it was a FI 5 increased to an FI50s?
Please include a copy of your 3rd cumulative record
